Comment

Lake Balkhash is one of the largest lakes in Kazakhstan and the 15th largest in the world. It is the only natural reservoir in the world and consists of two parts at once: salt and fresh.

Balkhash perch is one of the endemic fish living in the lake. It separated from its closest relative, the common river perch, about 5-7 million years ago. It is included in the Red Book of Kazakhstan.

 

In the production of the coin, a new innovative coinage was used using 3D ultra-high relief technology. The relief of the perch's head is 17 mm higher than the plane of the coin.

 

Interesting fact

The 1000 Tenge (Balqah Alabugasy) 2023 coin from Kazakhstan is a unique piece as it features a stunning design of a falcon, which is a symbol of power, strength, and freedom in Kazakh culture.
